Class 458 full power acceleration !(cool traction motor sounds)

[@bb-3653]

LISTEN TO THAT SCREAM !!!!! "Reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee" That's how we like our trains to sound !!

[@Solomon_C]

The motor sounded a bit ugly I won't lie - still sounds better than the 365 though.

[@gapthemind--mindthegap8524]

​@Solomon_C I have to disagree , they sound better than electrostars to me. But that's my opinion I guess. What's a good motor sound for you? Tbh they do have alot of different noise going on initially but at speed they sound like the 365s (just alot louder and more audiable) the motors here are likely based off gear ratio amd performance of a 365. Alstom developed both their motors after all. A cleaner sound example would be 378s and bombadier DB talent 2 class 442s of Germany Talent 2 kzbin.info/www/bejne/eHiulZiLbp6Dj9E at 3mins and 18 into the video . Similar motor sounds to these but alot cleaner than the 458s.

@@gapthemind--mindthegap8524 A good motor sound is the 357, 375, 377, 379, 387. And the old eurostar 373. They sound nice. 376 and 378 are OK

[@Solomon_C]

@@gapthemind--mindthegap8524 They don't sound like the 365 but OK

[@gapthemind--mindthegap8524]

@@Solomon_C i mean, the main motor sound and blending of the deep humming noise are the exact same in pitch. The GTO isn't what I'm talking about . The noise that rises in pitch js what I'm speaking about , the 365 requires good ears to sifen out the motor noise at higher speed.

[@tbvids]

One of the best traction motors out there

[@bb-3653]

Agreed 110% this Is my video by the way , just reacting from My normal account

[@gapthemind--mindthegap8524]

Soon to come will be the 458/4s !!! When they debut i will be sure to attempt to record them at max speed.

[@joshuahalla.k.a.controlla6333]

Nice 🔥

[@gapthemind--mindthegap8524]

Thanks man, when the 458/4s are available I'll video their performance too

[@ylchoibus11082]

Sounds like moscow 81-740

[@supertram1032]

Isn't a 458s a 334s underneath

[@gapthemind--mindthegap8524]

@@supertram1032 somewhat, gear ratio wise, no. They are similar but the gear ratios are somewhat different .

[@supertram1032]

@gapthemind--mindthegap8524 are they thanks for telling me that information that's interesting to hear I noticed on 334 001 in particular it sounds slightly different to the rest in the class

[@Solomon_C]

Wow the ride quality is a bit jiggly isn't it?

[@gapthemind--mindthegap8524]

It's actually better than 450s 🤣🤣 they were smoother than 450s for sure. They weren't actually that bad when I rode them personally.

[@Solomon_C]

@@gapthemind--mindthegap8524 Oh it looked jiggly but I guess you were struggling to hold your phone properly

[@Solomon_C]

@@gapthemind--mindthegap8524 Yeah the Desiros (350, 360, 450) have shaky ride quality as a whole. The only good one is the 444, but it's only used on the longest services...

[@gapthemind--mindthegap8524]

@Solomon_C a mixture of both. It was but not so bad that I was rocking back and fourth. But small jitters. Not a problem for me tbh.

[@gapthemind--mindthegap8524]

@Solomon_C 444s are also some bat shit hefty units , not much room for shaking tbh. Heaviest emu per carriage in the uk ,(imo its way too bulky) The second is likely the 332/333s . Also what's your opinion on the 458s acceleration now? They seem alot better than my previous video of them for sure . An actual driver willing to use them properly.
